Product Engineer-SiC

Navitas Semiconductor; Maharashtra; On-site; INR 2,200,000 - 2,800,000; Full time

Job summary

Navitas Semiconductor in India seeks a senior semiconductor process engineer to own change control for released products and drive yield improvements across fab, test, and assembly. You will monitor CP, KGD, and FT operations to identify excursions and contain affected lots quickly, while developing non-conforming reports with root-cause analysis.

You will lead 8D problem solving, manage hierarchical BOM structures in Arena PLM across Torrance and Pune, and collaborate with cross-zone teams to

Qualifications

• Master's degree in electrical engineering or a related technical field.
• 3+ years of experience in semiconductor products, process, or test engineering across fab, wafer test/KGD, and assembly.
• Experience with Silicon Carbide (SiC) or other power devices preferred.
• Familiarity with SPC and outlier-detection methods (SPC, SPAT/DPAT, GDBN).
• Strong root-cause and corrective action experience (8D or equivalent).
• Experience with Arena PLM or similar PLM/Hierarchical BOM structures.

Responsibilities

• Own change control administration for released products across fab, test, and assembly.
• Drive risk assessment, customer notification, and change validation.
• Monitor CP, KGD, and FT to identify excursions and contain lots quickly.
• Develop non-conforming product reports with root-cause analysis and disposition.
• Identify and resolve recurring product and process issues.
• Support automated yield reporting and alerts for low-yield trends.
• Prioritize and execute high-ROI cost reduction and yield-improvement projects.
• Manage SBL/SYL quality limits and hold-lot disposition.
• Implement SPAT, DPAT, and GDBN methods to eliminate outliers.
• Lead quality excursions using 8D problem solving.
• Own and maintain hierarchical BOM in Arena PLM across Torrance and Pune sites.
• Maintain specifications and work instructions; help standardize methodologies.
• Originate strategic initiatives like alternate-site qualification.

Job description

Key Responsibilities and Duties

• Own change control administration for released products, including fab, test, assembly and other manufacturing process changes
• Drive risk assessment, customer notification, and change validation
• Monitor circuit probe (CP), known good die test (KGD), and final test (FT) operations to identify excursions and contain affected lots quickly
• Develop non-conforming product reports, including root-cause analysis, risk assessment, and disposition
• Identify and resolve recurring product and process issues
• Support automated yield reporting and alerts to catch low-yield trends early
• Prioritize and execute the highest-ROI cost reduction and yield improvement projects; report progress against annual savings goals
• Manage SBL/SYL quality limits and hold-lot disposition
• Implement SPAT, DPAT, and GDBN methods to eliminate statistical outliers
• Lead quality excursion response using 8D methodology and structured problem solving
• Own and maintain the hierarchical BOM structure in Arena PLM
• Maintain specifications and work instructions; help standardize methodology across the Torrance and Pune engineering sites
• Originate and contribute to proactive, higher-scope strategic initiatives such as alternate-site or alternate-flow qualification.

Qualifications

Required Qualifications

• Master's degree in electrical engineering, Materials Science, Semiconductor/Microelectronics Engineering, or a related technical field
• 3+ years of experience in semiconductor products, process, or test engineering, ideally spanning fab, wafer test/KGD, and assembly
• Experience with Silicon Carbide (SiC) or other power semiconductor devices strongly preferred
• Working knowledge of statistical process control and outlier-detection methods (e.g., SPC, SPAT/DPAT, GDBN)
• Experience with structured root-cause and corrective action methodologies (8D or equivalent)
• Familiarity with PLM/BOM systems (Arena PLM or similar) and hierarchical BOM structures are a strong plus
• Comfortable working with production and yield data; Excel or scripting skills (Python, JMP/JSL) a plus
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to collaborate closely with the Torrance, CA PE team across time zones
• Self-directed and comfortable operating in a newly established team, helping define processes as the team scales
